Summary
Once a voracious adventurer, it has been many years since Hal Courtney has dared the high seas. Now he must return with three of his sons -- Tom, Dorian, and Guy -- to protect the East India Trading Company from looting pirates, in exchange for half of the fortune he recovers. It will be a death or glory mission in the name of the crown. But Hal must also think about the fates of his sons. Like their father before them, Tom, Dorian, and Guy are drawn inexorably to Africa.
